Formula 3: Kimiya Sato captures lead of the standings

Kimiya Sato dominated the ATS Formula 3 Cup at the Sachsenring. The Japanese clinched a commanding start-finish victory on Saturday and won the third race with the new Volkswagen power engine including the push-to-pass system as well. In the second race, the 22-year-old finished as the runner-up barely missing victory by 0.607 seconds. The maximum number of points in this case went to Rene Binder, who was thus able to celebrate his first win. In the drivers’ standings, Sato has now taken the lead with 101 points ahead of Jimmy Eriksson (73 points) and Lucas Auer (65).
